For Several Commercial Pasteurization and Sterilization Processes: Overview, Uses, and Restrictions R&D AND PRODUCTION RETORTS SPECIALISTS (33 to 175 L) www.terrafoodtech.com Heat Process Values F (2nd Ed.) for several Commercial Pasteurization and Sterilization Processes: Overview, Uses, and Restrictions Janwillem Rouweler - [email protected]; June 12, 2015 Which heat process value F should a particular food receive to make it safe and shelf stable? 10 * Section 1 lists reported sterilization values F0 = F 121.1 (= F zero) for commercial food preservation processes of all types of food products, for several package sizes and types. * Section2 contains reported pasteurization values F, or P, of a great variety of foods. The required storage conditions of the pasteurized foods, either at ambient temperature, or refrigerated (4-7 °C), are indicated. * Section 3 shows a decision scheme: should a particular food be pasteurized or sterilized? This depends on the intended storage temperature (refrigerated or ambient) after heating, the required shelf life (7 days to 4 years), the food pH (high acid, acid, or low acid), the food - water activity aW, and on the presence of preservatives such as nitrite NO2 (E250) miXed with salt NaCl, or nisin. * In Section 4, two worked eXamples are presented on how to use an F value when calculating the actual sterilization time Pt: - C.R. Stumbo’s (1973) calculation method has been manually applied, verified by computer program STUMBO.eXe, to find the sterilization time and the thiamine retention of bottled liquid milk in a rotating steam retort; - O.T. Pham’s (1987; 1990) formula method, incorporated in EXcel program “Heat Process calculations according to Pham.xls”, has been used to find the sterilization time and the nutrient retention of canned carrot purée in a still steam retort. * The worked eXample in Section 5 illustrates the use of the pasteurization value F of apple juice, in calculating the required (average) residence time in the holding tube of a heat eXchanger. The EXcel program Build-Heat-EXchanger.Xls neXt calculates the juice’s spoilage rate by a mold, a yeast and an enzyme, and the nutrient retention of vitamins C and folic acid in the pasteurized juice. * Section 6 eXplains how F values can be calculated when a microbial analysis of the food is available. The actual pasteurization or sterilization time calculations should be based on all micro-organisms of concern present, and rather NOT on the highest F value only! An eXample calculation shows that the required F value for a food, to be sold in a moderate climate country, usually differs considerably from the F, required for the same food, to be sold in tropical areas. 10 °c 1.

  • REDUCTION of PURINE CONTENT in COMMONLY CONSUMED MEAT PRODUCTS THROUGH RINSING and COOKING by Anna Ellington (Under the Directio
    REDUCTION OF PURINE CONTENT IN COMMONLY CONSUMED MEAT PRODUCTS THROUGH RINSING AND COOKING by Anna Ellington (Under the direction of Yen-Con Hung) Abstract The commonly consumed meat products ground beef, ground turkey, and bacon were analyzed for purine content before and after a rinsing treatment. The rinsing treatment involved rinsing the meat samples using a wrist shaker in 5:1 ratio water: sample for 2 or 5 minutes then draining or centrifuging to remove water. The total purine content of 25% fat ground beef significantly decreased (p<0.05) from 8.58 mg/g protein to a range of 5.17-7.26 mg/g protein after rinsing treatments. After rinsing and cooking an even greater decrease was seen ranging from 4.59-6.32 mg/g protein. The total purine content of 7% fat ground beef significantly decreased from 7.80 mg/g protein to a range of 5.07-5.59 mg/g protein after rinsing treatments. A greater reduction was seen after rinsing and cooking in the range of 4.38-5.52 mg/g protein. Ground turkey samples showed no significant changes after rinsing, but significant decreases were seen after rinsing and cooking. Bacon samples showed significant decreases from 6.06 mg/g protein to 4.72 and 4.49 after 2 and 5 minute rinsing and to 4.53 and 4.68 mg/g protein after 2 and 5 minute rinsing and cooking. Overall, this study showed that rinsing foods in water effectively reduces total purine content and subsequent cooking after rinsing results in an even greater reduction of total purine content.

  • Table of Amendments Issued
    Scotland Food Standards Training Manual Foreword The standard and quality of food is important to all consumers and food businesses across Scotland. Consumers must have confidence that food they buy and eat will be what they expect, will not be harmful and that they are protected from fraud. This manual provides information to authorised officers on these areas. The Food Standards Agency in Scotland has worked closely with the Scottish Government to ensure that the reputation of Scottish food and drink is upheld as part of Scotland’s National Food and Drink Policy. The Food Standards Training manual was first issued by the Food Standards Agency Northern Ireland in order to assist authorised officers with the challenging area of food standards. In 2007, the Agency’s sector-specific simplification project1 considered the potential for expanding the use of this manual. In Northern Ireland the manual is now in its third successful year, and evaluation of the manual has further determined the need for this type of resource. Work began in Scotland to produce a Scottish version of the manual in partnership with local authority authorised officers, based on the positive feedback received on the Northern Ireland manual from District Councils and to address issues raised by audits undertaken in Scotland. Partnership is key in the development of Agency projects and a working group was established to take this project forward with members of the Scottish Food Enforcement Liaison Committee Food Standards Sub Committee. The group offered invaluable expertise and experience in producing the Scottish edition of this training manual, and kept the main objective in focus, to provide a practical training and reference tool for authorised officers.

Various types of cheese produced from raw and pasteurized milk are known worldwide. In the present work, we are interested in studying the effect of the type of milk (raw and pasteurized) of two species (cow and goat) on the yield and physicochemical characteristics of the fresh cheese. In the northeastern Algeria, on 5 cow farms and 3 goat farms; 5 raw and 5 pasteurized milk cheese manufacturing trials were conducted. The analysis of the results of the 80 samples of milk and cheese of both cow and goat species showed that the latter contained significantly more fat and protein than cow’s milk and that pasteurized milk contained more protein than raw milk. As a result, actual cheese yield of goat cheese was higher than that of cows in pasteurized and raw milk. For higher yield, our result supported the use of pasteurized milk as a raw material in the manufacture of farmhouse cheese. Keywords: cheese yield; manufacturing; pasteurized; raw milk; livestock. Practical Application: For cheese-making under small scale using milk from cow or goat: pasteurization can increase actual cheese yield. 1 Introduction In Algeria, as in all regions of the world, consumption of have been attributed to several indigenous microbiota, such dairy products like cheeses is an old tradition linked to livestock as Lactococcus spp., Lactobacillus spp., Leuconostoc spp., and farming, since dairy products are made using ancient artisanal Enterococcus spp.

  • Federal Regulation of Raw Milk Cheese
    FEDERAL REGULATION OF RAW MILK CHEESE Obianuju Nsofor PhD Dairy and Egg Branch Office of Food Safety Food and Drug Administration Background ¡ Safety of raw milk cheeses is a public health concern. ¡ The presence of pathogens in dairy products is an indicator of poor sanitation, temperature abuse, inadequate pasteurization, fermentation failure, or obtaining milk from sick animals. ¡ Raw milk has been shown to be a major source of foodborne pathogens from prevalence studies. Background cont. ¡ Consumption of contaminated raw milk products has led to several foodborne outbreaks including brucellosis, salmonellosis, listeriosis, HUS associated with E. coli 0157:H7, staph. enterotoxin poisoning etc. ¡ Between 1941 to 1944, there were outbreaks of illnesses due to the consumption of cheeses made from raw milk. ¡ By 1946, there were scientific reports indicating the survival of pathogenic bacteria in raw milk cheeses. Background cont. ¡ FDA in 1949 promulgated standards for cheese as a response to numerous foodborne outbreaks due to consumption of improperly heat treated or raw milk cheeses. ¡ In the 1960’s more challenge studies were carried out to investigate the survival of pathogens after the 60-day aging period. Regulation /Policy ¡ In 1987, FDA prohibited interstate sale or distribution of non-pasteurized dairy products to consumers. ¡ Current Federal Regulations (21 CFR 1240.61) require: l “mandatory pasteurization for all milk and milk products in final package form intended for direct human consumption” Regulation /Policy cont. Exception: ¡ Cheeses identified by standards at 21 CFR 133 et seq. may be made from raw milk. They typically have to be aged for a defined time period in order to control microbial pathogens.
